TURN THE SUMMER INTO DUST.

We have big love for Australia’s latest sensational pop export, Montgomery. After dropping her New Clear War EP last month, the mystery chanteuse returns with a swoon-worthy cover of Arcade Fire’s modern classic “Wake Up” this week. Trading in the call-to-arms guitars for gentle atmospherics, she transforms the original into a gentle war cry of her very own, and the result is one of the finest Arcade Fire covers to date (second only to Mr. Little Jeans‘ immortal cover of “The Suburbs”). Get woke below.
